What a joy. There is a speech-dispatcher package on termux for quite some time already. Just install it with apt-get install speechd and It'll start working with espeak included. github.com/termux/termux-packa…
There has recently been a huge rush of people trying out Mastodon. I love it. This is also noticeable in the number of people reading my earlier Mastodon Guide. I wanted to take this opportunity to provide a brief list of usage tips that I wish I had at hand when first setting up my Mastodon home.
Updated my Mastodon migration blog post to add a link to @IzzyOnDroid’s help for exporting and viewing posts, media, favorites, etc. which is here: android.izzysoft.de/articles/n…
#microG Services Core v0.2.25.223616 was just released 🎉
Beside the usual set of improvements and fixes to keep compatible with Play Services, this release adds support for the Fido API to use U2F and Fido 2nd factor devices like Yubikey via Chromium and Firefox WebAuthn API and an updated set of client libraries to make it easier for existing apps to become fully free software. Check the release notes for more details.

This thread is pure gold! A fascinating insight! And thanks also for all the image descriptions you put in! I think @jensimmons might get a laugh or two out of this, too. --- RT @MoritzGiessmann Maybe you already knew, that it is possible to inspect web views in MacOS?

Hi, I'm treefit, a #foss dev working on #deltachat. I'm responsible for the desktop client together with @jikstra. My favorite coding language is #rustlang, but I "speak" #typescript, #javascript, #html, #css, too. I'm also capable in #python and #swift, but not as much.
I'm new to the mastodon/toot style of communication (never used Twitter, either), so I'm still learning of how this all works.
My goal is to give you some behind-the scenes peeks onto the DeltaChat development.
In August, I programmed Get4For6, a NAT46+DNS46 translator, which enables IPv4-only devices/networks to access the whole IPv6 Internet, and after testing it for ~1.5 months in my home network, it appears to do its job well! github.com/vitlabuda/get4for6 @Oskar456@twitter.com @zajdee@twitter.com @ondrejbudin@twitter.com
vypadá to fakt pěkně. Aktuálně zkouším Nextcloud s Deck pluginem, ale je to trochu těžkopádný. Na druhou stranu to má Android appku apps.nextcloud.com/apps/deck
@sesivany @jackc Už to mám od včerejška na serveru 🙂 Opakující se úkoly bez problémů. A synchronizace přes CalDAV také v pohodě. Fakt to vypadá hodně dobře.
@jackc Přímo admin rozhraní to bohužel nemá. Jdou povolit a zakázat registrace v config.yml. Týmy jdou vytvořit i nastavovat různá práva členům týmu. Ale vymazat uživatele jsem nenašel. Mám to pro rodinu, tak jsem to ani neřešil zatím. @sesivany
Dear @Thunderbird in version 102 you have added spaces toolbar. In version 107 nightly you have added list button on the message list toolbar that can be used to reorder message list columns. Would you consider moving these to the view menu where these make perfect sense in order to make keyboard only users happier? I know you would like to make them easier to discover but discoverability is short term goal and usability is here to stay.
Yay, I installed a professional GPS antenna on my rooftop for my stratum 1 #NTP server. You can use it at ntp2.weberlab.de, #IPv6-only. Meanwhile, it is part of the #NTPPool. Want to set up your own GPS-based NTP server? Here we go: weberblog.net/ntp-server-via-g…
This post shows how to use a GPS receiver with a Raspberry Pi to build a stratum 1 NTP server. I am showing how to solder and use the GPS module (especially with its PPS pin) and listing all Linux …
I'm blind and I had no idea October was blindness awareness month. So we need a blindness awareness month awareness month, preferably September. :)
1. I don't see anything: no shapes or colours. Occasionally get some (possibly placebo) light perception. Only intensity, no direction or colour or size of focus. 2. I do use braille. 3. But I mostly use TTS to access my computer. 4. I have work now, but it was difficult to get. 5. I don't do eye contact and I rock sometimes. Sighties don't like it.
@dark Really dislike that the "solution" to this is teaching me to look into the sighty's direction and to sit still without rocking. It's completely harmless, people demanding I do that can go fuck themselves.

Recently a friend recommended me to try out this awesome looking GPS navigation app specifically designed for visualy disabled users. Seeing Assistant Move: play.google.com/store/apps/det… Unfortunately I can't make it work on my Android 12 device. The app never receives GPS signal eventhough all the permissions are granted. Do you know someone who is using it on Android? #Android #Accessibility
Thanks for posting this transcript and for the informative & well-written talk, as ever!
Highlights for me:
- Filling in the gaps in my knowledge of GNOME a11y history - GitLab has inline code coverage markers on MRs 🤯 - Big recursion energy to fix the a11y of the code coverage tool used by the a11y code - The Gru's Plan meme reminded me of the first paragraph of this 10½-year-old post by Colin which I think about at least once a month blog.verbum.org/2011/12/06/the…
Of late I’ve become the “build guy” in GNOME it seems. One thing I want to clear up is I do not actually care about building just because I think it’s fun or interesting in …
Is it me or is #Google slowly removing accessibility support from #android #aosp apps? I'm running android 12.1 and included calendar and keyboard are no longer accessible. Keyboard is not a problem for me, as I am using 3rd party braille keyboards either soft braille keyboard or the one included within corvus suite of apps. However I am unable to find an accessible calendar app. Etar is partially accessible, only the agenda view is useable with the screen reader. Simple calendar has accessibility issues. Have you got some more tips?
Congrats @gnome #Amberol is very #accessible music player! Player controls including volume and skip sliders, playlist view, playlist selection all these features can be used with keyboard alone and screen reader turned on. If GTK issues like inaccessible shortcuts window, role names part of the controls labels will get fixed in the future it would really become fully complete in terms of #a11y.
New computer. Fedora Silverblue 36. Not signed into anything. Location services is on (using Mozilla location services). I’ve been living in Ireland now for 3+ years.
I open GNOME Maps app. I grant it location access. I press the “Go to current location” button.
It goes to the exact location of the home we had in Malmö, Sweden.
What. The. Fuck?
OK, so I have no idea how that’s possible. Mozilla must have somehow cached that location but how do they know it’s me?
Fucking hell, as some of you have pointed out in the comments, also, it’s tied to my router. I have the same router I had in Malmö. If this is not a GDPR violation, I have no idea what is.
So Mozilla – Defender of Privacy™ – is storing my location history, tied to my router, without ever having gotten consent from me to do so.
Dear !Friendica Support I have just noticed my network page on my instance of friendica is not listing any posts. It displays filters but not the content it-self. When using tusky on android the content is there. I'm running php 8.1 might that causing issues? In the error log I can't find errors just notices and deprecated stuff.
@Peter Vágner @Michael Vogel maybe try to delete all website data, also cookies and such and then login again and see what happens. Maybe some caches JS or so. I don't remember the specifics but I think someone helped me with this in similar cases before.
Yes, I've created new chromium profile for testing and it's working the way I'd expect. Hmm. strange. Do I have to set expires max in my nginx config to help browsers invalidate its cache? I can delete browser cache for my-self but I don't think I can ask my potential users to regularly do that.
@Peter Vágner this is special for the dev version I think. The files are renamed for the next release or so. Not all sure, maybe I am wrong. @Michael Vogel
Have you managed to run it? I have downloaded the binary from the website but some of the libraries on my arch linux system don't match so I havent yet explored it further.
@marcozehe Have you taken your site at marcozehe.de offline? Or is its unavailability just temporary? I was used to link to your #aria tips and other articles when explaining accessibility topics.
Finally working open-source #Android app for connecting to smb / cifs / windows file shares that integrates to any modern File manager through SAF. @fdroidorg will fetch todays release soon too. play.google.com/store/apps/det…
Nice to know poste.io is using the same stack for building email server I am running for a few years already. It's Haraka SMTP server, Dovecot imap server, rspamd for spam filtering and roundcube for accessing messages through the web.
Oh. What a discovery. Slovenská sporiteľňa is stopping SMS authentication of in app payments. However their MToken app is not #Accessible to screen reader users on android. Have you seen it else where with your Erste / Modernste bank account too?
When writing articles or documents in general I'd occassionally like to add pictures into the document e.g. a photo or a screenshot. While doing this I am always asking for help from someone else because I'm #blind. Can you give me some recommendations how to make sure the image is right size and it does not overlap the text or the other way round? Either pure HTML, or wordpress or markdown. #a11y #askfedi
So that depends on what the image is. If it's detailed and a main subject, like a photo, a screenshot, etc, I would say something like 1024x768 for photos, full scale for screenshots.
If it's an icon or profile picture, something like 32x32 is better.
